INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS.
The Trade of the Week the Whole Quite
Satisfactory.

INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. 8.
The trade of the week closing to-day has been as
whole quite satisfactory. The first three days dull
crept several departments but the latter
part of the week the volume assumed larger proper
tions; especially is that true of the dry goods and
grocery markets. Dry goods state that the trade
of the week will foot up largely in of that of
the corresponding week of 1856, and the firm strong
tone in prices is noticeable ali lines of goods. In
groceries there is a good distribution Sugars are
frmer but not quotably higher. Coffee is easier be-
the distributive demand is rather disappointing
and dealers find their stocks moving off slowly. In the
face of all the talk of short crops and decreasing sup
plies is nevertheless true that the price of
coffee is comparatively high. and this fact beginning
to tell upon consumption in this country well
Europe. Those who argue that present prices are
cheap and ought to be higher forget that it takes
20 make bargains and that the buyer usually has the
advantage. Looking solely at the falling off in pro-
duction coffee may be cheap, but the buyers look at
it another stand point and hence the disappoint
of the bulls careful analysis of the statistical
position of supplies this country and Europe shows
that thus far the influences of short crop not
visible. The visible supply is really in of what
it at this time last year. and yet values show
advance of nearly SO per cent In the produce mark
there has boon good deal of activity during the
entire week. In the vegetable line there has been
gradual weakening in prices and only choice sound
Irish viii bring soc per bushe and cabbage

Sweet potatoes, WELL on large receipts tending
lower and some small stock sold to-day as low SO
per barrel Apples are in large supply. Small and
fairly sound fruit sold from the at 400 per bushe
to-day and good apple sells for 81 per barrel while
really choice fruit brings from SO 70 to So per barrel
The leather market has taken decidedly frmer
Tone but prices yet have not been advanced but
early advance looked for. The hide market is more
active at unchanged prices.
